Vacation 2010 - Day 7

Today was a very relaxed day. We went over to Ricks place and had breakfast with him and his family. Rick made Belgian Waffles, which were delicious. After breakfast we hang out and did a recording for a podcast of one of Kenny's friends. We were talking about the 2st season of Startrek TNG. After that Rick, Kenny, Catherine (Rick's daughter), Andrew (Rick's son) and I went to the movies to see Toy Story 3. All 5 of us really loved it. For those of you, who have not a clue what I'm talking about here a short synopsis:

Woody, Buzz and the whole gang are back. As their owner Andy prepares to depart for college, his loyal toys find themselves in daycare where untamed tots with their sticky little fingers do not play nice. So, it's all for one and one for all as they join Barbie's counterpart Ken, a thespian hedgehog named Mr. Pricklepants and a pink, strawberry-scented teddy bear called Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear to plan their great escape.

After the movies we went back to the Moyer's house where Amy had prepared a special snack... a Deer / Elk Sausage. The sausage was absolutely delicious. For me it wasn't that much of a surprise, since I have had deer / elk sausage before. But for Kenny it was a surprise since he had never had this kind of sausage, and he really liked it. While we wee at the movies Daisy had stayed with Amy and she actually did fairly good, except that Daisy and Tess got into a little barking match a couple of minutes after we left. Other than that she has been doing fine.
Then Kenny tried to find hotels for the rest of the trip. We didn't want to drive all the way trough to Montana and wanted to stop in Spokane (WA). Turns out there is some sort of event going on this weekend and it is literally impossible to find a reasonable priced hotel room. So we opted to book hotels for all other stop on this road trip. This of course means that we have no hotel book for tomorrow. Tomorrow we will drive east and visit Leavenworth (WA), a town that is a recreation of a German city. After that we will have to decide if try to find a hotel to stay, continue to drive east and hope to find a hotel along the way, or sleep in my truck in the parking lot of a Walmart e.g. Right now we haven't quite figured that out yet, guess we will decide that while we are on the road.
After that we took Rick and his family out for dinner to the Mazatlan restaurant. All of us love Mexican food and it was absolutely worth it. After dinner we hung out for a little longer the Moyer's house and Kenny had S'mores for the first time in his life and he really seemed to like them. Then it was time for group pictures since that was our last day with them. Both, Kenny and I, loved spending time with them... and it's sad that we had to say good bye. Maybe they can make it down to our place for Kenny's 40th birthday in September. That would really be great.
